Proposed funding cuts to medical research grants by the Trump administration, which aim to cap reimbursements for indirect costs at 15%, are causing significant concern among academic medical centers. While a Massachusetts judge temporarily blocked these cuts, the uncertainty surrounding funding has already led to a freeze in support and the scaling back of various programs, as noted by Governor Maura Healey. The reduction could result in a loss of over $4 billion annually, affecting the National Institutes of Health's $32 billion budget for medical research and impacting facilities and operations vital for research. States like North Carolina, Missouri, and Pennsylvania are expected to be hit hardest, with the top ten NIH-funded institutions potentially losing over $100 million each year.

CISA is facing challenges in verifying the contact details of those affected and has prompted eligible employees to submit their information securely. The agency will place reinstated workers on administrative leave with full pay and benefits during this process, emphasizing the ongoing complexities of managing its workforce amid cybersecurity demands.
